Week 14 

Ok Human Bio 2008 students....here's the deal.

******See below for WEEK 14 Assignment ******

We did not finish our Infectious Disease PowerPoint presentations last week nor did we have a chance to do anything with the Week 13 Assignment dealing with Mitosis and Meiosis.  So, here is what I propose:

1.  Finish the CH 17 notes (2pages) to be handed in 12-3-08).  Many of you have already handed these in.  As you may recall some of you did not hand this in because of a mistake I had made with the Due date.

2.  Watch the following Video on Unitedstreaming : The division of Cells
